President Trump used Title 8 to deport illegal aliens more quickly.

What we found

Supports. A law review article says Trump expanded expedited removal so it could be used on any undocumented alien apprehended anywhere in the country who entered illegally within the previous two years, up from a narrower scope.[3]

Supports. A White House release states that the administration's expedited removal policy was affirmed by a federal appeals court, accelerating deportations of illegal aliens, and that deportation flights reached record highs.[2]

Supports. Reporting describes Title 8 as the standard immigration framework under which deportations and removals occur, and notes that a Washington Examiner column says deportations under Title 8 happened under Trump.[4][5]

Context. The Alien Enemies Act, which the White House also cites as a way to deport gang members expeditiously, is a separate legal authority from Title 8 and has been challenged in court.[1][6][7]

Context. The post's speaker is making a broader claim about Title 8 and speed; the claim adds no figure or scope that the passage does not state, so it is graded on its core assertion.
